What to Bring

Home

Footwear: Deck shoes are specifically designed to minimize slipping on wet decks. Leather soled shoes won’t work because they are too slick and you’ll slip and slide all over the place. Forget about high heels on a boat. Please DO NOT bring shoes with black soles. They leave marks that are incredibly difficult to remove. You don’t have to buy deck shoes for the cruise. Soft white or tan soled shoes such as tennis shoes, running shoes, etc., are acceptable – just not the ones with black soles. Be aware of the limitations other shoes have when on board. If you have questions about the suitability of the shoes you have on or plan to bring, just ask.

Attire: Layer your clothes. Depending on the season, it can be chilly in the morning and hot in the afternoon. If you suspect rain, bring a rain coat (or swim suit). Light coat / heavy coat: Take a look at the weather (www.weather.com) and get the forecast. Foul weather gear: If you see the weather requires this, we’re probably not going out. Call us. We can party on the boat or at the club. Suntan lotion: Yes. Pick the one that’s right for you. Sun reflected off the water carries a double whammy.

Sun Glasses: These are an absolute must. Polaroid work best. Darker is better.

Small Tote Bag: These work very well for keeping your hats, sunglasses, towel and bathing suit close at hand.

What NOT to Bring: Please do not bring a weapon (firearm) of any sort. Even if you’re licensed, state laws vary from one state to the next. Do not under any circumstance even dream about bringing illegal drugs on board. Do not bring prescription medications without the prescription or original pharmacy bottle. In essence, don’t bring anything you wouldn’t want a law enforcement officer to see. Or, black soled shoes you don’t want me to see. We can be boarded at anytime without cause by the US Coast Guard, Texas Parks and Wildlife officers, Sheriff’s patrol, and numerous other law enforcement agencies that patrol the waterways to keep us safe. They have flashing blue lights on their boats.
